About this listen

This scintillating tale about a jaded werewolf and a captivating young witch from the Immortals After Dark series is “delicious [and] sizzling” (Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author)—from New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Kresley Cole.

Bowen MacRieve of the Lykae clan was nearly destroyed when he lost the woman he loved. The warrior known for his ruthlessness grew even colder, never taking another to his bed—until a smoldering encounter with his enemy, Mariketa the Awaited, reawakens his darkest desires. When sinister forces unite against her, the Highlander must use all his strength and skill to keep her alive.

Temporarily stripped of her powers, Mari is forced to take refuge with her sworn adversary. It’s rumored that no one can tempt Bowen’s hardened heart, but soon passion sparks between them. Though a future together is impossible, she fears he has no intention of letting her go.

If they defeat the evil that surrounds them, can Mari deny Bowen or will she risk everything for her fierce protector?

What did you like best about this story?

The development of the relationship between Bowen and Meriketa. The growth from dislike to love and then abandonment is very well written.

What about Robert Petkoff’s performance did you like?

The narrator does an excellent job. The difference between male and female voices works very well. He maintains the accents and has enough emotional range to enhance the story.

Any additional comments?

I did read book 2 in this series and this is book 3, sadly the first hour of this book is a rehash of the end of the story in book 2, I very nearly gave it up as a bad job but after the first part the rest of the book is very good and a good listen.

I recently read "Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night", the fourth book in the "Immortals After Dark" series, and I absolutely loved it. The book revolves around the story of Bowen, who is one of the most tortured heroes I've ever read about. He is a complex character with a brusque personality, yet he is genuine, likable, and charming.

Bowen's only goal in life is to go back to the winter of 1827 and save his mate, Mariah, who ran away from him during a full moon night when she saw his monster and was accidentally killed. Bowen has been living in misery and sorrow for centuries, without any purpose in his life, until he discovers the Hie competition, which is represented by the majority of the Lore factions. The ultimate prize of the competition is the key to going back in time, and Bowen knows that he has to win it to get his mate back. Nye has predicted that this competition is the key to his success.

The heroine of the story, Mariketa (Mari), is a fantastic and fun character. She is smart, confident, and independent, and I loved how the author portrayed her character. Mari is a witch who has been underestimated by the other factions of the Lore, but she is determined to prove them wrong. She is vulnerable and insecure at times, but her determination and spunk make her one of my favourite heroines in the series so far.

Overall, "Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night" is a beautifully written book that is full of action, adventure, and romance. The story is well-developed, and the characters are well-rounded and relatable. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves paranormal romance and fantasy fiction.

Kresley Cole is the mistress of romance and any book she turns her hand to is fantastic. Loved the characters and that ending *chef’s kiss*

Bloody brilliant!

I really enjoyed this book and feel it's one of the best in the IAD series.
Regarding the story, it's plot driven, with interesting characters - both main and secondary. The fact that the main 'bedroom' scene doesn't appear until Chapter 41 (though there's plenty of teasing before then) shows that there's some substance to the story.

The narration is WONDERFUL, amongst the best I've heard. Robert Petkoff really captures the voice and the intonation of the author and brings the characters, both male and female, to life. It's worth buying the audiobook for his performance alone.

A Keeper!
